In the music series, the male protagonist writes a self-help manual for the inner world

Nagasaki Suyo raised her head, her face full of disbelief. Do you think you can understand Xiao Lixi better than me?

"How can it be!"

She had to refute Chen Xinghua.

After all, if Chen Xinghua, who had only spent four days with Shiina Riki, knew Shiina Riki better than her, the bassist who originally belonged to "CRYCHIC".

Then her idea of ​​trying to redeem 'CRYCHIC' is a bit ridiculous.

"I know what little Lixi wants."

"Want something, 'CRYCHIC'?"

The expression on Chen Xinghua's face was still calm to a degree that would terrify Nagasaki Suyo.

Even if she was angry or refuting, why did she have such a calm and even somewhat sarcastic expression? Nagasaki Suyo's body became increasingly limp, almost unable to maintain the kneeling position.

"Ah."

Nagasaki Suyo nodded with the remaining strength she had.

"I think what she wants most is to prove herself. To prove that she's not just an appendage of her sister."

Chen Xinghua looked down at Nagasaki Suyo from above.

This problem child has never truly understood Tatsuki Shiina, nor has he ever truly understood Tomori Takamatsu.

Although Lixi and Deng are both problem children.

In comparison, Xiangzi was a problem child with a milder illness.

Even among adults, not many can easily overcome the difficulties of a family falling into poverty, let alone a high school student like Toyokawa Shoko.

Moreover, the solution to Xiangzi's problems is very simple. As long as she has money, most of her psychological problems can be solved.

In comparison, the problems of Deng, Lixi and Sushi are difficult to solve.

Speaking of Ruoye Mu, he might also be a problem child. Chen Xinghua couldn't help but think so.

Although he and Wakaba Mutsu were strangers, he knew the other members of 'CRYCHIC', and all of these four girls were problem children.

Then the probability that the last remaining member of 'CRYCHIC' is not a problem child may be extremely low.

"Since she was born, Lixi has lived in the shadow of her older sister."

"When others introduce Riki, they always say she's the younger sister of Shiina Maki, who was once the head of the wind band at Hanaoka Girls' Academy and won first place in a regional orchestra competition."

Chen Xinghua's tone was very calm, like someone telling someone else's story, without any personal emotion.

"Instead of Shiina Riki... Perhaps in the eyes of others, and perhaps even in her own mind, she has always been Shiina Maki's sister, not Shiina Riki."

"That's why she wants to use the band as a vehicle to prove that she's not just an appendage of her sister."

Nagasaki Suyo knelt there blankly, because she remembered the first time 'CRYCHIC' got together.

At that time, she also introduced Shiina Riki to everyone like Chen Xinghua said: "Riki's sister is a very amazing person. When she was the head of the wind band, she also participated in the local wind band and won first place in the competition."

Isn't this all about introducing Shiina Maki?

There is only a small part introducing Shiina Riki, and it still says that "she is the sister of the very famous Shiina Maki."

Nagasaki Suyo subconsciously bit her lips, and a faint taste of rust spread on the tip of her tongue.

"Maybe Shiina still misses 'CRYCHIC', but what she needs most now is success."

Chen Xinghua said lightly.

"It is a huge success for Shiina Riki to prove that she is not Shiina Maki's sister."

But it is this desire for success that will drag herself and those around her into a hell from which there is no turning back.

After all, she stayed up late composing music until she almost made her soul come out of it.

If this continues, who knows what big trouble she will cause Chen Xinghua.

"But Xiao Deng must have really needed 'CRYCHIC', because when 'CRYCHIC' was still there, Xiao Deng and everyone else were very happy."

Nagasaki Suyo gathered the amazing wisdom in her mind and tried to solve the problem that was bothering her now.

"And Xiaoxiang... Xiaoxiang is the founder of 'CRYCHIC'. Xiaoxiang... Xiaoxiang definitely wants 'CRYCHIC'."

To this day, Nagasaki Motoyo still doesn't know why Toyokawa Shoko quit the band that day.

It was after Xiaoxiang left the band that Deng, Lixi and Mucai left the band one after another.

Until only one member, Nagasaki Motoyo, was left in the band called 'CRYCHIC'.

Therefore, as long as Xiaoxiang is found, 'CRYCHIC' will definitely be revived. It was she who connected Xiaodeng, me, Mu, and Lixi, who had no connection at all.

She will surely be able to connect us again.

"Everyone was very sad after 'CRYCHIC' disbanded."

Nagasaki Suyo's speech speed became faster and faster. "The same goes for Xiao Deng."

...Me too.

"Because 'CRYCHIC' disbanded, we gradually lost contact."

...Until Xiao Deng suddenly asked Li Xi and I to form a lifelong band, the connection between us seemed to have gradually disappeared.

“It’s ‘CRYCHIC’ that brings everyone together like a family.”

Nagasaki Suyo said loudly.

Chapter 122 What should I do?

"So without 'CRYCHIC', it definitely won't work."

"...We need 'CRYCHIC'."

At the end of her speech, Miss Nagasaki Motoyo's voice even had a strong tone of tears.

Chen Xinghua blinked his eyes quietly as he watched Miss Nagasaki Suyo, whose tears welled up in her eyes, whose speech became faster and faster, and whose body became weaker and weaker.

"To be honest, you said you were sad after CRYCHIC disbanded, but I don't really relate to that... After all, I wasn't involved."

"But I understand one thing."

Is it possible for CRYCHIC to be resurrected? Chen Xinghua asked himself.

At least this is something that is impossible to happen before Shoko Toyokawa's financial problems are solved.

Because Xiangzi's self-esteem would not allow her to use Chen Xinghua's money to play in a high school band like 'CRYCHIC' which is just a playful thing.

Therefore, if you want to revive 'CRYCHIC', you have to wait until Shoko Toyokawa has enough financial resources on her own.

And the earliest time for this would be after she graduates from college.

After all, high school students making a lot of money by debuting is only common in the two-dimensional world.

Although there are indeed cases in Japan where high school students made a lot of money by debuting, such as Mitsukasa.

But how many high school students are there in Japan, and how many high school idols are there like Sankaku Chuhua?

Could the ratio of the two be one hundred thousand to one?

Instead of expecting Toyokawa Shoko to make her debut and make a lot of money in high school, it would be better to let her buy a lottery ticket and sit at home waiting to win the jackpot.

"I think it's about time you figured it out, Nagasaki Suyo. 'Crychic' can't be resurrected. The important thing is to move on."

Chen Xinghua looked at Nagasaki Suye's increasingly sad face.

"We just...we just haven't understood each other yet. As long as we speak our minds, we can definitely make peace."

Nagasaki Suyo was sobbing, her health bar was almost empty.

But if Chen Xinghua didn't give her one last blow, this guy would sooner or later use the power of time to fill his already depleted health bar.

"It's impossible now. Deng and Lixi have already stepped out of the shadow of 'CRYCHIC'."

Chen Xinghua delivered the final blow to Nagasaki Suyo.

“They may still miss CRYCHIC, but they won’t stop and try to go back to the past just because they miss CRYCHIC.”

“Even if the past was happy, it is the past.”

Chen Xinghua delivered another blow, digging another wound in Nagasaki Sushi's heart.

"Tomoe invited Aine to join the band and agreed to have Lenai join the band."

"And unlike you, Li Xi doesn't care whether I can play 'Spring Shadow', which originally belonged to 'CRYCHIC'."

"And you...rejected my performance of 'Haruhi Shadow'."

Now that I think about it, Ms. Nagasaki Motoyo probably didn't want me to play "Kasuga Shadow", which originally belonged to 'CRYCHIC'.

But Aine and the others were able to practice "Haruhi Kage" before, why can't I do it?

Chen Xinghua narrowed his eyes and recalled the information he had just seen on the main page of the 'CRYCHIC' account. 'CRYCHIC' consists of keyboardist Shoko Toyokawa, bassist Soyo Nagasaki, guitarist Mutsu Wakaba, lead singer Tomo Takamatsu, and drummer Tatsuki Shiina.

So that's how it is. Chen Xinghua felt that he understood Nagasaki Soyo's thoughts at that time.

...It's okay to play "Kasuga Shadow" if it's lacking a keyboard player, but it's not okay to play "Kasuga Shadow" if it's not lacking a keyboard player.

In this way, keyboardist Toyokawa Shoko, bassist Nagasaki Motoyo, guitarist Wakaba Mutsu, vocalist Takamatsu Tomo and drummer Shiina Tatsuki in 'CRYCHIC' can correspond one-to-one with keyboardist Chen Xinghua, bassist Nagasaki Motoyo, guitarist Chihaya Aine, vocalist Takamatsu Tomo and drummer Shiina Tatsuki in Tomo's band.

This is something that Ms. Nagasaki Suyo, who is dedicated to reviving 'CRYCHIC', cannot tolerate.

Because she felt that if she did not stop the band with the same members as 'CRYCHIC' from playing "Haruhi Shadow", it would be like she was abandoning 'CRYCHIC' and accepting this new band.

"What does this mean, Miss Nagasaki Suyo, you should understand."

"They've all moved on, so it's time for you to move on too."

"Don't just think about yourself."

Am I really the only one who wants to return to 'CRYCHIC'? Nagasaki Suyo burst into tears.

No, no, no, Xiaoxiang and Mu must want to go back to 'CRYCHIC'.

"I have something very important to say today... I am quitting 'CRYCHIC'."

The voice of Toyokawa Shoko quitting 'CRYCHIC' half a year ago once again flooded into Nagasaki Suyo's mind.

What about Mu...Mu must want to return to 'CRYCHIC'.

The memory of the day when Shoko Toyokawa quit 'CRYCHIC' once again flooded back into Nagasaki Suyo's mind.

This is what Wakaba Mutsu said after Toyokawa Shoko said, "I want to quit CRYCHIC."

'I've never had fun playing in a band.'

Eh? Caught off guard, Nagasaki Suyo was stabbed by memories from six months ago.

After all this time, Ruoye Mu is still able to give the members of 'CRYCHIC' a tough dose.

"Or do you think Deng invited you to form a lifelong band in order to revive 'CRYCHIC'?"

Chen Xinghua asked, tilting his head.

"……no."

Nagasaki Suyo said this blankly like a puppet.

Under the last hits of two teammates half a year ago and the unconscious last hits of two teammates now, a huge loophole appeared in Nagasaki Motoyo's mental defense.

What to do! What to do? What to do.

"what should I do?"

Nagasaki Suyo raised her head and asked Chen Xinghua.

Although she knew that this guy had deeply hurt her heart, didn't this prove that this guy really understood her?

After all, if Chen Xinghua didn't understand Nagasaki Sushi, how could he have inflicted real damage to Nagasaki Sushi like he did now.

Only those who truly understand you can break down your defenses with words.

"How to do it..."

Chen Xinghua sat on the exposed iron stairs and hid his body in the shadow.

"My advice is to stop kneeling... It hurts your knees and your reputation. If someone sees you kneeling in front of me, they might come up with some terrible plot."
